and coarsely punctured, each puncture enclosing a small scale ; 

 antennae pitcliy, last three joints of the funicle transverse, the four

 confluent punctures, the middle with a longitudinal carina, the 

 apex with two small fasciculi directed forwards ; scutellum not 

 raised ; elytra twice as broad as the prothorax at the base, the 

 shoulder conically produced, the sides gradually narrowing, but 

 broad at the apex, coarsely seriate-punctate, the declivity with a 

 tubercle on each side ; body beneath and legs roughly scaly and

Neiphagfs pasciculaeis. 



iV, crassus, fuscus, rude griseo-squamosus ; funiculo antennarura arti-

Sah. Moraboia. 



Hobust, dark brown, with irregularly set grey scales ; head and 

 rostrum coarsely punctured ; antennae pitchy, the four basal 

 joints of the funicle moderately elongate, the second longest ; 

 prothorax subtransverse, abruptly constricted anteriorly, the 

 apex with two fasciculi, and on the convex portion behind two 

 larger fasciculi, a well-marked median carina, and a coarse close- 

 set punctuation on the disk, each puncture filled in with a large 

 scale, many of them elongate and directed forwards ; scutellum 

 transverse, elevated ; elytra nearly twice as broad as the pro- 

 thorax at the base ; the shoulder conically produced, gradually 

 narrower to the moderately broad apex, striate-punctate, with 

 from six to eight tuberculated fasciculi on each ; legs scaly and 

 closely setulose. 



A very distinct species ; the tubercles on the elytra are not 

 all equally developed.
